I think it will be Simon Louis and Nicole but not Sharon, she absolutely slagged off the show last time she was on it saying things like she is sick of people singing to her and can't be bothered with talent shows etc so surely she won't have changed her mind? Unless the break helped and she is missing it.

I was watching old X factors on YouTube and Simon Louis and Sharon in the beginning were ace so if Sharon could get to that standard again and add Nicole in there to also spice it up a bit then yeah it is the perfect panel

But I am mostly doubtful about Sharon, I could see Tulisa being more likely to be the 4th Judge, which makes me shudder but I don't know why because she turned out to be really good the first series she was on

No Dannii = Meh

Danni wouldn't do it, and that's even without the possibility of Sharon also being there and the man she had a sexual relationship with and spilled all about in a book also being on the panel, or was it Simon that spilled about Danni? Either way even without those reasons she still wouldn't do it, plus she got really bland but she was the best mentor there has been in her dedication to her acts

Has it been confirmed Nicole is back apparently she has pulled out of Cats a week before rehearsals start, and Lloyd Webber claims she had made him look like a twot ....he needed no help. :idc:

BREAKING: Rock royalty Sharon Osbourne, pop sensation Nicole Scherzinger and chart maestro Louis Walsh, will sit alongside The X Factor creator and music mogul Simon Cowell on this years panel.

Bloody fantastic news - this has the potential to be the best panel yet! :clap1:

Glad Nicole is back but UGH at Louis and Sharon. :bored:

only here for Louis

Oh @ Sharon

Nicole :flutter:

Perfect :clap1:

Best way to make you feel old: Bring back old things. 😄

Yeah, shame they had to ruin an otherwise good panel by bringing that dickhead back.

Still, really happy to see Nicole back. :love:

It's gonna be the best panel since I watch the show (series 9). I was excited for Rita last year, but nothing compares to fabulous Sharon and shamazing Nicole. :D

Glad to see Nicole and Louis back

Sharon and Louis :clap2:

Don't really care for the other attention seeking twat but I suppose we've always got to have one I dislike.

****ing perfect. Adore Nicole and the show needs Louis.

YAAAASSSSS

I'm so happy! This is legit the most perfect panel of all the previous judges :clap1: considering every decision they announced last year was the wrong one, all of them this year have been the right ones. They're doing a great job, can't wait for this series now <3

This

It should have been dannii not sharon

Sharon ruins this line up

Genuinely the best four
If Dermots returning too, it might actually be good

Amazing line-up, so looking forward to this

:amazed:

Basically this will be a good year judging wise but it will be 2013 low standards of acts.
